Description

Castillo Ygay White Gran Reserva Especial from the renowned Marqués de Murrieta has been hailed as one of the world’s best white wines*. It was bottled in 2014 after more than 20 years of aging in American oak barrels and almost six years of rest in concrete tanks. Incredibly complex, it will continue to evolve in the bottle for many years to come.

*Voted Best White Wine In The World (Vivino Wine Style Awards 2020).

Tasting Note

Subtle nose at first, although it gradually opens up until it develops some nuances of mushrooms and verbena tea. On the palate it is powerful and elegant, with excellent acidity and great length, volume and sharpness, with a mineral touch and an umami finish.
